differ or compare to children in china or in india? >> well, china and india, there's just dramatically greater focus, i think. the level of hustle and intensity, the number of days in which they're in school, the incredible focus on education. i think there's an issue in the united states with our schools to be sure. but it's not all our schools. i think starting in maybe 1970 when our education achievement flat-lined -- flat-lined now for 40 years. i think part of it is we had been so rich for so long that we sort of lost our hunger and our drive. we became a little lazy and complacent. if you look at where young people are spending their time today, it's not studying hard. it's messing around, watching tv, playing with their ipod. in fact, a recent study showed that the average american ages 8 to 18 spent 7 1/2 hours a day in front of a screen of some sort. and so i don't think that's happening in india and china. >> one other issue is that if you're the principal of a school, you don't really have the ability to put the best talent

there's no hot line between india and pakistan, only last week, diplomats from both countries meeting out at stanford university trying to talk about establishing a hotline. so unlike the cold war, there is no communication, they could have an accident. india has said in the past they were restrained a few years ago when it was proved that pakistan was behind the attacks, they were restrained by the rest of the world, they did not retaliate, this time most likely they would. i was talk to a prominent indian diplomat saying he could not persuade his country to refrain. just tonight, the head of pakistani intelligence is meeting with the active head of the cia here in the u.s. that was previously set up because of growing tension between the two countries, between us and pakistan, but this will be the number one topic now. >> a lot of pieces in play, a serious situation, glad to have you here, andrea mitchell, as always. >>> how those squiggly shaped light bulbs are becoming a rallying point against government interference in people's lives. and the u.s. soccer team writing their own sc

she chartered ten planes to fly the guests to the party in india. fabulous. here she is in india. she reportedly paid diana ross over half a million dollars to perform at the party. if you know mrs. ross like i do, and i love her, my favorite artist, then you know that it's not that mrs. ross doesn't want to come out of her house, it's that she doesn't come out to do a whole lot because she doesn't feel like it. so for her to be partying in india is a big deal. the only time we hear about her leaving the house is when she goes grocery shopping wearing what i like to wear. leggings, a sweat jacket, good big hair, no make up, and no sunglasses either. i can't see when i wear them inside. i don't know how people do that. anyway, ey have been together since 2008, and they really do make a smart, sexyooking couple. but he is still married to his wife of 25 years, and look, they're one big happy family. there is everybody. that's the wife and the kids, and naomi. >> and they all work -- that's the new normal for a lot of families -- congratulations naomi! >> i wanted to thank our audien

same with india. >> and with limited fresh water resources, how do you think this plays out? do you see water privatization as the future? who really stands to profit from this? >> water privatizing goes way back to thnapoleonic france. now it's become a global business. water privatizers play themselves down as if they're a boring utility, but the fact is these guys are aggressive players. they're spreading through asia and they're in the states. in the best-case scenario, privatizers do a great job by fixing up the water supply and providing it at a reasonable cost. the worst-case scenario, they have been known to gouge their customers. the difference between something like water privatizing and the oil business, which people make the comparison, is that you can't drink oil. water is an essential resource. we all need it to survive. the question is really an ethical one. is water common, like the air we breathe, or is it a commodity like oil and gas that we extract, process, and sell on the open market? experts tell me it's a little of both so we have to t@eat it as a speci
